It is so cold in these big ole villas that we have had to resort to creating our own fireplaces! This is in the foyer of my neighbors place.
Talk about trying to fill some big shoes!

Welcome to 2007!

Caleb and I rang in the New Year and partied on until 2 a.m.(this kid is soooo Egyptian!) We party hopped a bit and ended up at the Stringfield's to celebrate with them and SkipBo and family. I had a chance to catch up with some of the college kids who were back in town and that was fun as always. Caleb and I spent the night at SkipBo's and then got up and went apartment hunting...yes I know I reported that I had a place...yes I know that I have reported that on a number of ocassions, but things keep falling thru, so I am not going to say anymore until I actually sign a contract.

If you read this before tommorrow (Tuesday) I would appreciate your prayers as I have to go and renew my visa in the a.m. Now it really should be no problem as many folks live here 15 -20 years on tourist visas but it is happened that people have been refused a renewal. That could be a very serious problem for me so even though it is unlikely it still eats at me, so I would greatly appreciate your prayers that all would go smooth and easy and that I could relax in faith.
